    Gotcha. Good response. I’m guessing that the portal usage was a necessary evil in 2019, or at the very least a strategic choice. I think that the trend - albeit just three cycles - is downward. Just three this year, versus 5 in 2020 and 8 in 2021. It’s an interesting take on the team’s success...
